Home Cook Recipe: Asam Prawn

Fried Asam Prawn is a Nyonya Dish that can be cooked easily at home. It's not spicy at all and is suitable for adults and children. It's also a favourite food for my love one. Sure enough, it's also easy for you to prepare for your love one:)

Just buy some fresh medium prawn from market. Remember not to choose the fed prawns, they tasted very bad. Choose the shell which got some red or green colour. Marinate the prawns with two table spoons of asam paste for at least one hour. The longer you marinate it, the better it tasted.

Fried the prawns one by one using the medium fire.

The tip is to put in some Oyster Sauce.

Put in some sugar to make sure the asam paste's not too sour. Fry till fragrant.

The beautiful and delicious Nyonya Asam Prawn is now ready to serve. Yummm...can smell the aroma of asam from far:) It's best serve with white rice.
